In 605 B.C., the Neo-Babylonian Empire marches on Jerusalem. Taken from the ashes of his home, fifteen-year-old Daniel and three young Judean nobles-Hananiah, Mishael, and Azariah-are dragged hundreds of miles into the heart of the greatest empire on earth. They are not meant to be menial slaves; they are meant to be remade.
Forced into a ruthless three-year reeducation program at the Royal Academy, the four youths are stripped of their names, immersed in the dark arts of Chaldean astrology, and plunged into a deadly game of political intrigue. From navigating the terrifying whims of King Nebuchadnezzar to facing the ultimate test of the burning fiery furnace, the friends must outsmart the master diviners plotting their execution.
In the University of Babylon is a gripping historical thriller about identity, unshakable courage, and learning to survive inside a system designed to overwrite your soul.
Perfect for readers seeking:
- Clean, faith-based YA historical fiction
- Immersive biblical storytelling (The Book of Daniel)
- High-stakes suspense and ancient world-building
- Powerful themes of holding onto faith in a hostile culture
Step into the empire today and discover what it takes to live in Babylon without letting Babylon live in you.
